The National Water Research Institute (NWRI) supports projects and programs focused on ensuring safe, reliable sources of water now and for future generations. Activities include encouraging public support of better water practices such as conservation and water use efficiency, implementing strategies that better allocate and sustain water resources on regional and national levels, protecting existing water supplies from impacts on quality and quantity, developing technologies that identify and remove new contaminants from water supplies, identifying treatment technologies that are cost and energy-efficient, and educating youth on water issues and future water needs.

The 22nd annual Children's Water Education Festival, the largest of its kind in the United States, will be held March 28-29, 2018 at the University of California, Irvine. The event is presented by the Orange County Water District (OCWD), Disneyland Resort, National Water Research Institute and the Orange County Water District Groundwater Guardian Team.
